Re: Art Shell to return to Raiders as Head Coach
Wow, I think it was Peter King who first reported that Shell might be back but I didn't think it would really happen. He definitely deserved another shot, kinda strange he didn't have that second shot much earlier.

Even if he does well, I'm sure Davis will look to replace him next year if he can find someone. Shell is to Davis what Unseld used to be to Pollin. Just someone loyal who can fill in when needed until something else comes along.

Re: Art Shell to return to Raiders as Head Coach
Art Shell is now the Billy Martin to Davis' George Steinbrenner.

Re: Art Shell to return to Raiders as Head Coach
I think Art Shell is extremely capable of getting a message to players. Look for the Raiders to have an actual scary side to them again. Love to see Lester Hayes as DB's coach. Is Collins staying in OAK? Anyone know who's set to be OC?

Re: Art Shell to return to Raiders as Head Coach
i think this is funny. not that shell isnt a good coach but he was obviously a last resort. wisenhut turned it down among countless others(so ive heard). it was like nobody wanted to coach that group in oaktown

Re: Art Shell to return to Raiders as Head Coach
The raiders organization is little more than a joke. The fact that they were almost to the point of having high school coaches turn them down says quite a bit of where they stand. I'm saying nothing about the talent of their roster, I'm speaking of their front office and all that. If Art Shell can get a decent staff under him, and REALLY BIG IF the front office makes smart moves, they could be good very soon...dunno if those ifs will be satisfied though...it is Al Davis afterall.
